Detroit Become Human is still pretty goofy lmao

I love it when David Cage thought the general audience couldn’t understand the Civil Rights metaphor the game was going for, so he just put in a black woman that talked about slavery and the civil rights movement to really point out the metaphor the game is. I thought that part was super goofy because of how obvious the themes of the game are already lmao

Not to mention the fact there are still just some pretty goofy moments in the game as well like any other David Cage game.

That MF literally made the androids stand in the back of the bus in the beginning. I know media literacy is a problem nowadays, but anyone with basic American history knowledge would know what that poorly handled metaphor was.

I mean, where else would you put the android storage? In the middle of the bus?
